    Hi All

    Thanks for all the congratulations for Mr Macpep, just need to get the other stuff out the way & then wait for a starting date but he thinks it will be in around 6 weeks time.
    Well I got diddly squat done last night, home, dinner, out to aunts for cousins birthday, home at 10pm then catch up with some tv, crush some candy & then bed :eek: Bathrooms were done on Tuesday, so I will just put the steam mop around the floors after I have tackled my room, in reality, it shouldn’t take any more than an hour. We are predicted rain here on Sunday so I will not be looking out the sandals :rotfl:

    Good afternoon everyone, I have spent the last 2 hours sitting with my feet up sorting through paperwork (wasn't on my list but felt in the mood for it today).

    Currently waiting on Asda delivery (due between now and 5)so I will embark on 2 hours flying to include ironing, laundry, making the dinner and dealing with the delivery when it comes.

    I will be back later to update my list and catch up with what everyone else has been doing. Hope everyone is having a good Thursday, hugs to those that need it x
